On the day of Arbaeen, a mourning ceremony was held at the Hussayniyeh of Imam Khomeini (r.a.), with student groups from around the country as well as individual university students in attendance—showing their love for Imam Hussain (a.s.) and his loyal companions—in the presence of the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution.

After mourning processions held by university students, the Leader of the Islamic Revolution briefly addressed the audience by praising the pure hearts, sincere emotions and lucid faith of the devout youth as a means that prepares the grounds for receiving divine blessings. Ayatollah Khamenei then prayed that the Iranian nation can achieve all the great goals and ideals of Islam and the revolution.

The ceremony was concluded with afternoon prayers led by Imam Khamenei.
